(ii)    The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of the Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(iii)    Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(g)    Exchange Offer. Upon the occurrence of the Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Officer ’s Certificate or an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate (i) one or more Global Notes without the Restricted Notes Legend in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amounts of the beneficial interests in the Global Notes tendered for acceptance by Persons that provide in the applicable letters of transmittal such certifications as are required by the Registration Rights Agreement and applicable law, and accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer and (ii) Definitive Notes without the Restricted Notes Legend in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Notes tendered for acceptance by Persons that provide in the applicable letters of transmittal such certification as are required by the Registration Rights Agreement and applicable law, and accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer. Concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Notes with the Restricted Notes Legend to be reduced accordingly, and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Persons designated by the Holders of the Definitive Notes so accepted Definitive Notes without the Restricted Notes Legend in the applicable principal amount. Any Notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the Exchange Offer, and Exchange Notes issued in connection with the Exchange Offer, shall be treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture.

Section 2.7    Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer fails to make a payment of interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on any Note when due and payable (“Defaulted Interest”), it shall pay such Defaulted Interest plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the Defaulted Interest, in any lawful manner. It may elect to pay such Defaulted Interest, plus any such interest payable on it, to the Persons who are Holders of the Notes on which the interest is due on a subsequent Special Record Date. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent in

 

19


writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Note. The Issuer shall fix any such Special Record Date and payment date for such payment. At least 15 days before any such Special Record Date, the Issuer shall deliver to Holders affected thereby, with a copy to the Trustee and the Paying Agent, a notice that states the Special Record Date, the Interest Payment Date and amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.8    Execution of Guarantee.

The Guarantor hereby agrees to execute the Guarantee in substantially the form above recited to be endorsed on each Note. If the Issuer shall execute Definitive Notes in accordance with Section 2.5, the Guarantor shall execute the Guarantee in substantially the form above recited to be endorsed on each Note. The Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by an Officer of the Guarantor. The signature of any Officer on the Guarantee may be manual or facsimile.

In case any Officer of the Guarantor who shall have signed the Guarantee endorsed on a Note shall cease to be such Officer before the Note so signed shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, such Note nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Guarantee had not ceased to be such Officer of the Guarantor; and any Guarantee endorsed on a Note may be signed on behalf of the Guarantor by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Guarantee, shall be the proper Officers of the Guarantor, although at the date of the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.

Section 2.9    Add On Notes.

The Issuer may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture Add On Notes having terms identical to those of the Outstanding Notes, except that Add On Notes:

(a)    may have a different issue date from other Outstanding Notes;

(b)    may have a different first Interest Payment Date after issuance than other Outstanding Notes;

(c)    may have a different amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date after issuance than is payable on other Outstanding Notes;

(d)    may have a different issue price;

(e)    may have a different CUSIP or ISIN number if such Add On Notes are not fungible with the Notes then outstanding for United States federal income tax purposes; and

(f)    may have terms specified in Add On Note Board Resolutions, an Officer’s Certificate or a supplemental indenture for such Add On Notes making appropriate adjustments to this Article 2 and Exhibit A (and related definitions), as the case may be, applicable to such Add On Notes in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws) and any registration rights or similar agreement applicable to such Add On Notes, which are not adverse in any material respect to the Holder of any Outstanding Notes (other than such Add On Notes) and which shall not affect the rights, benefits, immunities or duties of the Trustee.

 

20


In authenticating any Add On Notes, and accepting the additional responsibilities under the Indenture in relation to such Add On Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon:

(a)    the Add On Note Board Resolutions, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture relating thereto, setting forth the form and terms of the Add On Notes;

(b)    an Officer’s Certificate complying with Section 7.5; and

(c)    an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 7.5 stating,

(1)    that the forms of the Notes have been established by or pursuant to Add On Note Board Resolutions, an Officer’s Certificate or a supplemental indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.9 and in conformity with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture;

(2)    that the terms of the Notes have been established by or pursuant to Add On Note Board Resolutions, an Officer’s Certificate or a supplemental indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.9 and in conformity with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture; and

(3)    that the Notes and the related Guarantee, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer and the Guarantor in the manner provided for herein and in the Base Indenture and the Guarantee, respectively, subject to any customary conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor, respectively, entitled to the benefits provided in this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the enforcement of such obligations may be subject to bankruptcy laws or insolvency laws or other similar laws, general principles of equity and such other qualifications as such counsel shall conclude are customary or do not materially affect the rights of the Holders of the Notes.

If such forms or terms have been so established by or pursuant to Add On Note Board Resolutions, an Officer’s Certificate or a supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Notes:

(1)    if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken;

(2)    if the Trustee in good faith determines that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any Outstanding Notes; or

(3)    if the issue of such Add On Notes pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, benefits and immunities under the Notes, this Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.9, the Issuer may not issue Add On Notes if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Section 2.10    ISIN Numbers and Common Codes.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “ISIN” Numbers (if then generally in use) and common codes, and, if so, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall use “ISIN” numbers and common codes in notices of redemption and other notices to the Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any change in the “ISIN” numbers or common codes.

ARTICLE 3

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

In addition to the covenants set forth in Article 3 of the Base Indenture, the Notes shall be subject to the additional covenants set forth in this Article 3.

Section 3.1    Payment of Additional Tax Amounts.

With respect to the Notes, Section 12.02 of the Base Indenture is not applicable. All payments of interest and principal by the Issuer under the Notes and by the Guarantor under the Guarantee shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future Taxes unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event that the Issuer or the Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct on account of any such Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will (a) withhold or deduct such amounts, (b) pay such additional tax amounts so that the net amounts received by each Holder or beneficial owner of the relevant Notes will equal the amount such Holder or beneficial owner would have received if such Taxes had not been required to be withheld or deducted (“Additional Tax Amounts”) and (c) pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant tax or other authority in accordance with applicable law, except that no such Additional Tax Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Note:

(1)    to the extent that such Taxes are imposed or levied by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner) having some present or former connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction other than the mere holding (or beneficial ownership) of such Note or receiving principal or interest payments on the Notes (including but not limited to citizenship, nationality, residence, domicile, or the existence of a business, permanent establishment, a dependent agent, a place of business or a place of management present or deemed present in the Taxing Jurisdiction);

(2)    in respect of any Taxes that would not have been so withheld or deducted but for the failure by the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes to make a declaration of non-residence, or any other claim or filing for exemption to which it is entitled or otherwise comply with any reasonable certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction if (a) compliance is required by applicable law, regulation, administrative practice or treaty as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the Taxes, (b) the Holder (or beneficial owner) is able to comply with these requirements without undue hardship and (c) the Issuer has given the Holders (or beneficial owners) at least 30 calendar days prior notice that they will be required to comply with such requirement;

(3)    to the extent that such Taxes are imposed by reason of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property taxes imposed with respect to the Notes, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture;

(4)    to the extent that any such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the presentation of the Notes, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Tax Amounts had the Notes been presented for payment on any date during such 30-day period;

 

22


(5)    in respect of any Taxes imposed under Sections 1471-1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, any applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, or any judicial or administrative interpretations of any of the foregoing; or

(6)    any combination of items 1 through 5 above.

For purposes of this Section 3.1, “Taxes” means, with respect to payments on the Notes, all taxes, withholdings, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Taxing Jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax.

Section 3.2    Stamp Tax.

The Issuer and the Guarantor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument in relation thereto.

Section 3.3    Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article 8 of the Base Indenture and subject to the ability of the Issuer or the Guarantor to convert (or similar action) to another form of legal entity under the laws of the jurisdiction under which the Issuer or the Guarantor then exists, each of the Guarantor and the Issuer will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Issuer and the Guarantor shall not be required to preserve any such existence, right or franchise if the Issuer and the Guarantor determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer or the Guarantor and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

Section 3.4    Certificates of the Issuer and the Guarantor.

The Issuer will furnish to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer as to the signer’s knowledge of the Issuer’s and the Guarantor’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Supplemental Indenture or the Base Indenture). In the event the Issuer comes to have actual knowledge of an Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, regardless of the date, the Issuer shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee specifying such Default and the nature and status thereof.

Section 3.5    Guarantor To Be the Sole Equityholder of the Issuer.

So long as any Notes are outstanding, the Guarantor or its successor will directly or indirectly own all of the outstanding Capital Stock of the Issuer.

Section 3.6    Limitation on Liens.

The Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien, other than a Permitted Lien, upon any of its property (including any shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness of any subsidiary) to secure any other Indebtedness incurred by the Guarantor or any subsidiary, without in any such case making effective provision whereby all of the Notes outstanding (together with, if the Guarantor so determines, any other Indebtedness by the Guarantor or any subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes or the Guarantee) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Indebtedness for so long as such other Indebtedness shall be so secured unless, after giving effect to such Lien, the aggregate amount of secured Indebtedness then outstanding (excluding Indebtedness secured solely by Permitted Liens) plus the value (as defined in Section 3.7) of all Sale-Leaseback Transactions (other than those described in clause (a) or clause (b) of Section 3.7) then outstanding would not exceed 10% of the Guarantor’s Consolidated Net Worth.

 

23


Section 3.7    Limitation on Sales and Leasebacks.

The Guarantor will not, and will not permit any subsidiary to, enter into any Sale-Leaseback Transaction after the date of this Supplemental Indenture unless:

(a)    the Sale-Leaseback Transaction:

(1)    involves a lease for a period, including renewals, of not more than five years;

(2)    occurs within 270 days after the date of acquisition, completion of construction or completion of improvement of such property; or

(3)    is with the Guarantor or one of its subsidiaries; or

(b)    the Guarantor or any subsidiary, within 270 days after the Sale-Leaseback Transaction shall have occurred, applies or causes to be applied an amount equal to the value of the property so sold and leased back at the time of entering into such arrangement to the prepayment, repayment, redemption, reduction or retirement of any Indebtedness of the Guarantor or any subsidiary that is not subordinated to the Notes and that has a Stated Maturity of more than twelve months; or

(c)    the Guarantor or such subsidiary would be entitled pursuant to Section 3.6 to create, incur, issue or assume Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the property without equally and ratably securing the Notes.

As used in this Section 3.7, the term “value” shall mean, with respect to a Sale-Leaseback Transaction, as of any particular time an amount equal to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of sale of the property leased pursuant to such Sale-Leaseback Transaction, or (ii) the fair value of such property at the time of entering into such Sale-Leaseback Transaction as determined by the Board of Directors of the Guarantor, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of full years of remaining term of the lease (without regard to renewal options) and the denominator is the full years of the full term of the lease (without regard to renewal options).

Section 3.8    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim to take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE 4

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

Section 4.1    Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may at its option redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, on any date prior to the Stated Maturity, upon notice as set forth in Section 4.2, at the Redemption Price.

 

24


Section 4.2    Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption to the Holders of the Notes to be redeemed shall be given by delivering notice of such redemption, on at least 10 days’, but not more than 60 days’, prior notice delivered by electronic transmission, first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they appear on the registration books of the Registrar, with a copy of such notice delivered to the Trustee. The notice of redemption of the Notes to be redeemed at the option of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request, delivered to the Trustee at least five Business Days before the date such notice is to be given to Holders (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. For so long as the Notes are listed on Euronext Dublin and the rules of Euronext Dublin so require, the Issuer shall publish a notice of redemption in a daily newspaper with general circulation in Ireland (which is expected to be the Irish Times). Such notice of redemption may instead be published on the website of the Euronext Dublin.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including an equity offering, an incurrence of indebtedness or a change of control) may, at the Issuer ’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and such notice may be rescinded or the Redemption Date delayed in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the Redemption Price and performance of its obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, in which case a portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. In the case of a Global Note, an appropriate notation will be made on such Note to decrease the principal amount thereof to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof. Subject to the terms of the redemption notice (including any conditions contained therein), Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption, unless the redemption price is not paid on the Redemption Date.

Section 4.3    Deposit of Redemption Price.

On or prior to the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price in respect of all the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and subject to the rules of the applicable depositary.

Section 4.4    Tax Redemption.

(a)    If, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Taxing Jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or in any Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation or any change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment becomes effective or, in the case of a change in official position, is announced on or after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, the Issuer or the Guarantor (or any of their respective successors), as the case may be, is or will be obligated to pay any Additional Tax Amounts with respect to the Notes, and if the Issuer or the Guarantor (or any of their respective successors), as the case may be, determines that such obligation cannot be avoided by the Issuer or the Guarantor (or any of their respective successors), as the case may be, after taking reasonable measures available to it, then at the option of the Issuer or the Guarantor (or any of their respective successors), as the case may be, the Notes may be redeemed in whole, but not in part, at any time, upon the giving not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, at the Redemption Price; provided, however, that (1) no notice of such tax redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or the Guarantor (or their respective

 

25


successors), as the case may be, would, but for such redemption, be obligated to pay such Additional Tax Amounts were a payment on the Notes then due, and (2) at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Tax Amounts remains in effect. The notice of tax redemption shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request delivered to the Trustee at least five Business Days before the date such notice is to be given to Holders (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer.

(b)    Not less than five Business Days (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee) before any notice of tax redemption pursuant to Section 4.4(a) is given to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, the Issuer or the Guarantor (or their respective successors), as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Issuer or the Guarantor (or their respective successors), as the case may be, is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer or the Guarantor (or their respective successors), as the case may be, to so redeem have occurred or have been satisfied and (ii) an opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to that effect based on the statement of facts. Such notice, once given to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

ARTICLE 5

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 5.1    Satisfaction and Discharge.

(a)    With respect to the Notes, Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture is not applicable.

(b)    The Issuer and the Guarantor may satisfy and discharge their obligations under this Supplemental Indenture with respect to any Notes while the Notes remain outstanding, if (a) all Outstanding Notes have become due and payable at their scheduled Maturity, or (b) all Outstanding Notes have been called for redemption, and in either case, the Issuer has deposited with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay and discharge all Outstanding Notes on the date of their scheduled Maturity or the scheduled Redemption Date.

ARTICLE 6

APPOINTMENT OF PAYING AGENT

Section 6.1    Paying Agent.

The Issuer hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, to act as Paying Agent. In connection with its appointment and acting hereunder, the Paying Agent is entitled to all the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities provided to the Trustee under the Indenture.

ARTICLE 7

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 7.1    Scope of Supplemental Indenture.

(a)    The changes, modifications and supplements to the Base Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture shall only be applicable with respect to, and govern the terms of, the Notes and shall not apply to any other Securities that may be issued by the Issuer under the Base Indenture. Other than such, changes, modifications and supplements, the Base Indenture is incorporated by reference herein and affirmed in all respects.

 

26


Section 7.2    Provisions of Supplemental Indenture for the Sole Benefit of Parties and Holders of Notes.

Nothing in this Supplemental Indenture, the Base Indenture or in the Notes or the Guarantee, expressed or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and their successors and the Holders of the Notes, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Supplemental Indenture or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 7.3    Successors and Assigns of Issuer and Guarantor Bound by Supplemental Indenture.

All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Guarantor shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 7.4    Notices and Demands on Issuer, Trustee, Paying Agent and Holders of Notes

Any notice or demand which by any provision of this Supplemental Indenture is required or permitted to be given or delivered to or by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or by the Holders of Notes to the Issuer or the Guarantor shall be in writing in the English language and may be given or served by being deposited postage prepaid, first-class mail (except as otherwise specifically provided herein) addressed (until another address is filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) as follows:

with a copy (which shall not constitute notice) to the Trustee.

The Trustee also agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to the Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods.

The Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee by written notice to each other may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

Any notice or communication to the Issuer or the Guarantor shall be deemed to have been given or made as of the date so delivered if personally delivered or if delivered electronically, in pdf format or if telecopied; and seven calendar days after mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee). Any notice or communication to the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall be deemed delivered upon receipt.

Where this Supplemental Indenture provides for notice to Holders, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing, in the English language, and delivered to each Holder entitled thereto, at his last address as it appears in the register of the Notes. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, personal delivery, telecopy or electronic delivery, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed or delivered, to any particular Holder shall affect the

 

28


sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Supplemental Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to mail notice to the Issuer, the Guarantor or Holders of Notes when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Supplemental Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Base Indenture or in the Notes, where this Supplemental Indenture, the Base Indenture or any Note provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption or purchase) to a Holder of a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to Euroclear or Clearstream electronically or by other method in accordance with the procedures thereof.

Section 7.5    Officer’s Certificates and Opinions of Counsel; Statements to be Contained Therein.
